st-60 calipers?? - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

Nuthing special I just remember talking to the stoptech reps last year at MOD in Socal about the st-60 caliper. So when did you guys get them in? I noticed the front and rear BB kit comes with the st-60 instead of the st-40 now correct?

We've had them for a while already, just nobody was asking, and nobody was placing orders on 380mm (15") kits. But as soon as we got the order for one of those orders, we switched all the 15" kits to the six-piston ST-60 calipers 100%. Already three such kits have been sold. These calipers can also be ordered with 355mm (14") kits.

Only the front kits come with the ST-60 calipers. Our cars are very nose-heavy / rear light, so even ST-40 are not optimal for the rear because they are simply too large. The ST-22 calipers remain the best choice for the rear kits.

The tried and true ST-40 are still available with 328mm, 332mm, and 355mm kits. This is what most of the people have been running for the last five years. They have proven themselves to work just great. The ST-60 calipers offer bigger pads, which is their main advantage.

Nice, good to hear. When I get the money the F/R kit is what I plan on getting.

Lurrrve to have some 380's after the 356's died in only 10,000k, tbh, I'd go the ones without drilling or slotting..

you guys going to stock the 12 piston K-sports as well?

Are you going to offer those in the 35mm wide rotors as well? Also, what would you recommend as far as drilling/slotting? Think mainly track use.

Yes, you can get both kits with 35mm wide rotors too. There is no difference in price. For road racing get slotted rotors. With these kits you will be able to road race a 3000GT with a trailer attached.
